Pineapple Dessert

Number of smallish pineapples - one per person.
Brown sugar.
Brandy.
Butter.
Cinnamon if preferred (I don't add this as my wife don't eat it)
Enough tin foil to individually wrap each pineapple.

-     Cut the top off the pineapple.
-     Hollow out the pineapple small pieces at a time.  Take care to leave the sides thick enough that the natural holes don't open up else the sauce will leak out.
-     Put back the pineapple pieces, packing it in layers.  Between layers add butter, brown sugar and cinnamon to taste, and sprinkle with brandy.
-     Put lid back and wrap in tin foil.
-     Place (upright!) on slow coals for about 20 minutes.
-     Take off and enjoy - each his own.

The thick sides you had to leave in order for it not to leak is scraped to the skin, let me tell you.
